Beschreibung

Welcome to Vermilion Sands, the fully automated desert-resort ready to fulfil your most exotic whims.

Out over the towering Coral D, sky artists paint the sky with clouds. A musical statue is broken down, but finds new life in unwanted places. A mysterious new resident introduces a new way of making poetry - aided by machine. Drawing together some of the most mesmerising and mind-blowing stories from J.G. Ballard's Vermillion Sands art-infused universe, this short collection is a passport into the genius of science fiction's most visionary pioneer.

Includes the stories: Cry Hope, Cry Fury!, The Cloud-Sculptors of Coral-D, Venus Smiles and Studio 5, The Stars

BRIEF ENCOUNTERS: classic novellas and captivating stories, to be read in a single sitting or savoured over days
